(meine ist seit gestern nicht mehr "still sealed", aber reinhören konnte ich auch noch nicht wirklich ...)

Meine bleibt sealed bis ich mir einen neuen Autoradio zugelegt habe, aber dann wird sie aufgerissen

Kauf Dir lieber ein neues Auto

nachdem mir mr. still sealed (yeah, baby! ) aus "namensgründen" heraus naturgemäß nicht weiter helfen kann und ich selber immer noch nicht in der lage bin, ähm dazugekommen bin, vergleichshörungen anzustellen, nochmal meine frage:

kann mir bitte jemand sagen, welche live-versionen sich auf diesem set befinden ... und zwar geht es um die paar songs hier:

CD 1:
.....
American Trilogy
My Way
I Just Can't Help Believing
The Wonder Of You
You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling
How Great Thou Art - Live 1974


CD 2:
You Gave Me A Mountain
Polk Salad Annie
I Can't Stop Loving You

für eure hilfe wäre ich wirklich sehr dankbar ...

Nach 4 Monaten Wartezeit ist am Donnerstag dieser hier angekommen



Die CD ist auch bei mir noch sealed
